I personally have a couple different sites, but just wanted others to know about it being a possibility

I am anxiously waiting for Derby week to watch TVG and see them try not to talk about the derby. Will be hysterical watching blinkers off the day before the derby and have them capping the feature from Sunland. If they dont merge with HRTV by the end of the year, they will most likely not be around in 2008. They won't be missed.

I sent along an e-mail to Youbet. No response yet.

BUT - another red flag.

When you go to Andy's "Beat the Pro" page, you can click on a Road to Derby Schedule.

Preakness listed.
Belmont listed.
No Kentucky Derby listed.

Yikes. Nothing from CD listed. Not looking good...

This is even MORE interesting now, great find......I sent an email yesterday and no response, it usually takes about 2 weeks for them to respond to emails.....

Merge city, I wouldn't be surprised to see HRTV to buy them, or a place like Keeneland to tell him, KNOCK IT OFF and starting playing nice

I am hoping that HRTV buys em. Then fires most of their on air cast. The only one worth anything on there is Frank Lyons....maybe Simon Bray. While listening to Todd Schrupp yesterday from Keeneland I wanted to put an axe through my tv.

haha, I agree about Lyons, he is one of the few that bring anything to the table.

Blinkers Off is terrible. The most annoying things isn't the content, but the delay between NY and LA where Matt ends up talking over the DRF guy for half the show.

Sigh, but I keep watching every week.

I solve that by watching something else.

I keep the track feed up on my computer and when it gets to be a minute or so to post, I hit TVG. As soon as they cross the wire, the channel is changed.

OMG! then you are missing out on the valuable PK four plays that they routinely give out. I find those to be a source of great comedy.

That none of them hit. People on here routinely put up $48 plays that hit.

It is the situation where non-horse racing people are making decisions that people that have actually wagered before should be making.

LOL Jim.

What I don't want is people who's handicapping I don't trust, clouding my judgement. It's cloudy enough.

Scavs,
I read somewhere, during the big announcement that Churchill was teaming with HRTV, that YB was not going to have CD and the rest of the Churchill owned tracks were also leaving YB when their contracts expired. This is going to be the last summer of CRC and AP.

I have been trying to find the aritcle and haven't been able to, so take it for what it is, a guy with a shitty short term memory trying to quote something he saw a month ago....
